Little Drawings

I've been treating the artwork for the Swordfights EP (and the music & lyrics) as one big piece as opposed to 4 separate songs and some drawings to go with it, and I'm pretty happy with the results. There's still much to be done and washes to be added, and when it's all done I think I'm going to retire the crazy hatching for a bit to try to new things so I'm pushing it as much as I can without completely breaking my mind. More stuff soon!

Drawing for Illustration...and fun!

I'm currently taking Gayle Donahue's Drawing for Illustration class which is all about linework & various pen/ink techniques. After spending the last year drawing with nothing but technical pens the class has made me re-evaluate the way I draw & use lines, & I think my work (and attitude towards it) has been improving really quickly as a result.
Here's a few sketchbook pages from recent history & an assignment from Gayle's class...we had to do a self portrait & than choose either a pet, plant, or vegetable, & draw both in Alan Cober's style. I drew broccoli.






In other news, my band Swordfights has been making progress on the EP we started recording just before the new year & should be finished in about a month, with a release date in mid/late April. I'm quite proud with the way it's sounding...We're going to try and do something special for the packaging and include a zine of some sort with the disc, but more on that as it gets figured out.

I'm also doing a 2 page story for a Werewolf-themed-zine being put together by the same folks who set up the Space Hell show, and I'm working to start a web-comic with a friend of mine, so things are getting a lot busier which is a good feeling. Much more very soon!!

Linework

The astronaut fellow is a piece for an upcoming group show at L'Keg Gallery in Echo Park. The other is a work in progress for the mini-comic I'm hoping to have done for Wondercon in April. Yeah!
